The European Covenant of Mayors' office organises this webinar in collaboration with ClimateView from Sweden.

Today, most cities rely heavily on emissions data to answer such questions. But emissions data comes with several inherent flaws: it is difficult to collect, it comes with a significant time lag, and often lacks precision. Therefore, emissions data has a limited use if we want to know the impact of our policies, or the overall speed of our climate transition.

This webinar will introduce you to a new approach on how to tackle the climate challenge - using transition targets. The method breaks down overarching climate goals into tangible and measurable targets. The approach unlocks valuable data on the actual performance of cities and regions’ climate transition, and provides insights that are actionable in the local context.
